Chapter 523: The Grand Finals! (3)
Qiao Lian smiled. “His name is Shen Zihao. And I’m quite sure you’ll have the chance to see each other again.”
Xia Nuannuan nodded.
Looking at the building, she asked Qiao Lian, “What are you here for?”
Qiao Lian answered, “I’m here to see a friend. But the guard wouldn’t let me in.”
Xia Nuannuan nodded, apparently familiar with the rules. “That’s right. The rehab home has strict regulations. I now work here as a caregiver.”
She paused for a moment and then said, “I can get you in.”
Qiao Lian widened her eyes. “What?”
Once she was in the elegant pounds of the rehab home, Qiao Lian realized that they had accessed the facility through the back door, in all sense of the word.
Xia Nuannuan even gave her a brief background explanation of Song Yuanxi’s condition. “Actually, Ms Song’s condition is unstable. Sometimes she’s okay, sometimes she’s not. She must have been triggered by something. For cases such as hers, there’s actually no need to send them to a rehab home. After all… the patient still has the desire to be with their family and loved ones.”
Having said this, she turned to glance at Qiao Lian.
Qiao Lian pursed her lips and did not ment.
Xia Yehua had been constantly worried about Song Yuanxi. Although it was understandable why they had had to leave Song Yuanxi in a facility like this, she still felt terrible doing it.
Song Yuanxi had done Qiao Lian so much damage, and had even injured Shen Liangchuan…
And Qiao Lian also did not have a good relationship with Song Yuanxi to speak of.
But now, hearing what Xia Nuannuan had just said, Qiao Lian understood better.
No matter how good the rehab home sounded, or how luxurious its facilities were, it made little difference.
Perhaps the only thing better about this place, when pared to a prison, was its environment.
Without the freedom to e and go as one wished, and being watched over all the time…
These were in fact the greatest punishments for Song Yuanxi.
As Qiao Lian had not spoken a word, Xia Nuannuan immediately understood that it must be a personal matter she did not wish to reveal. Being a kind and sensitive girl, she did not broach the topic again. Instead, she said, “Ms. Song usually stays in her room alone and hardly speaks. She stares into space a lot. Sometimes she cries. We ask her to join the activities but she refuses.”
Xia Nuannuan showed Qiao Lian the way to the residential block.
“Ms. Song lives here. ” She pointed to one of the units.
The buildings of the home were all very bright and airy.
Every unit had a room, a living area and a bathroom.
It was a truly fortable place to live in, even better than most five-star hotels.
Xia Nuannuan pushed open the door to Song Yuanxi’s unit for Qiao Lian to enter.
The sound of the door opening did not seem to catch Song Yuanxi’s attention at all, as though the sounds of the mortal world no longer moved her in any way.
She sat on the sofa in the living area, staring intently at a corner of the room.
Following her gaze, Qiao Lian found that she was staring at a blank wall.
She stood at a cautious distance from Song Yuanxi and asked, “What are you looking at?”
Song Yuanxi was staring at the blank wall with widened eyes, in her patient’s gown. When she heard Qiao Lian’s question, she turned around and threw her an empty glance before saying, “I’m looking at the memories of Brother Liangchuan and I.”
Qiao Lian was surprised.
There was a clarity in Song Yuanxi’s expression that made her look normal. In fact, she did not look sick at all. Qiao Lian frowned.
Song Yuanxi stood up and turned to her. “Why are you here? What do you want?”
There was really nothing abnormal about her.
Qiao Lian frowned and asked, “I’ve e to ask you a few questions.”
“Go on then.”
“Song Yuanxi, why are you so against me?”
On this note, a sudden change came over the girl. It was as though she had bee another person. “Because I hate you,” she spat. “You caused the death of…”
